Of all the CSM threads this is certainly the most entertaining.

Which is something, i guess. Keep up the show, please.

This has turned out to be an amazing thread. It's been Darius III coming in to his own thread name calling and pointing finger while the majority of the CSM calls him out on untruths, and then Brick guys and their alts posting in his defense.

You can't make this stuff up! You can't make it up!

To clarify, this thread's only redeeming feature is its comedy value. After most of the current CSM showing up and giving their input, there isn't really anything worthwhile to discuss itt. But please, by all means, continue!

Now Mittani discusses things from the internal forum, but when it is he that posts, CCP says that isnt covered by the NDA. That means a lot of things arent covered by the NDA than I had previously thought. I'll be posting much of it in the days and weeks to come.Of course I won't break the NDA, but theres a lot I can now talk openly about now that the policy has been clarified. I look forwards to disseminating most of the Non-NDA covered information in short order.Good day gentlemen o/ D3


And here we have it - the peak of Darius III's political genius, and the pillar of his campaign: A threat to break the NDA, because "HE STARTED IT, MOM!".

Now that you've effectively ended your own failure of a campaign, what will your next lofty goal in EvE be?

I am not reading all the comments to form an opinion about you. I have flown with you enuff to know that I like you and I am happy to have you represent me.

You have my vote and whatever other votes I can muster up.

One thing.

Drop the arena idea. It will be all we ever do and will kill off a lot of other aspects of the game.

At the VERY LEAST scrap the "token in missions" idea. I am on the edge of a sharp sword as far as travelling afk is concerned. I blame my noobish mission whoring first six months in Eve. I cannot afford to mess with faction standings as they are and can't be bothered to try figure out how to balance them. I already wasted days of training on a bullshit skill.

Oh yeah and post a pic of friend me on Facebook. I am 100% hetero, but very gay for you.

CCP hired a guy from an alliance that doesnt mind if it's members use macro-bots, and people wonder why botting hasnt been stopped.


The CSM can't do anything about botting, you're ******** if you think that they can. SREEGS has been doing all that he can and you're effectively calling him out on T20 levels. You best check yo'self.

If little Mittens doesnt think I am a threat, why does ho go to such great lengths to lie and send in his morons in droves to be shitting up my campaign thread?


Find me one piece of communication from Mittani showing that he asked goons to come here. Goons are shitting all over you because they love two things, posting, and dumping on badposters. This thread is providing entertainment. Also don't try to fake logs again, you just embarrassed yourself the last time.

Quote:

Goons are liars and yet CCP adores them. You think CCP gives a rats butt about GSF exerting undue influence in the CSM process-you are sadly mistaken.


This doesn't even make sense. All the CSM can do is raise issues, and say yes or no to developer decisions. Do you really think goons are telling CCP to look the other way at botting? This just shows how little you did with the previous CSM if you actually believe that.

Every D3 response is either dismissive, condescending, or claims of a goon conspiracy. His political platform, if you want to call it that, is to attempt to gain support from being a "martyr" against goons while appealing highsec players who re-post suggestions such as "auto fire". That might have worked if so many other CSM members hadn't called you out on doing nothing.

His arena proposal says it will double subscribers. What proof do you have towards that number? None? Thought so. EvE isn't about fair fights and it shouldn't be.

Re-balancing incursions... no ****. That hasn't been brought up in a new post as soon as the last dies. It might need to be done but you certainly don't need to be there to make it happen.

Low sec suggestions are, well, nothing. You just say overly general things but don't say what the problem is besides "super capital proliferation" and allow people to make more money. Give more information on WHY these need to happen rather than blanket statements to appeal to gain votes.

Tokens aka the normal remove loot from missions runners but you argue this will increase mission income. What... so lets remove a universally usable drop and replace it with something that can only be used by mission runners. How will that increase mission income? How often do these drop? How will something gathered by only mission runners and only used by mission runners equate out to more income than loot drops?

Autofire: another constantly suggested idea. Makes AFK'ing during pve easier and generally just lowers the "skill cap" for pvp.

Control space: Another idea to make this game easier for morons. If you forget to turn off a module and drain your cap then you deserve to have no cap.

Destructible stations: Something that has been suggested for well over a year now and CCP has said they like it but the idea needs to be developed more. Once again a blanket statement made by you which doesn't build on the idea at all.

New space with no supers/local: Oh you mean a wormhole? Once again why? Interesting idea but not enough detail to decide if it would be a good idea or not.

Stopping the drake nerf: You really don't understand that nerf do you? It isn't saying that it is overpowered in any one area but the fact that it does just about everything better or just as good as ships dedicated to only one area. That is the problem. This current iteration might not be the right way to go but something needs to be done.

All-stop: what?

I won't vote for a goon but you won't be getting my vote either.

HA HA HA I am laughing and have tears (of joy-not the Goon bitter tears) in my eyes as I write this. I can verify that Mittani lied about your activity level and understated your total posts-reducing the true number by 86%. Too bad the other CSM's are afraid to post that you have 50+posts in the official forum so everyone would know that there really *IS a conspiracy against you. Good luck in the election!!

I'm not running for re-election so there's no risk of D3 tarnishing my election campaign.

I can't exactly recall one positive contribution D3 made during his term as CSM alternate. He rarely logged into Skype and participated in group discussions. I don't think his absence should be rewarded with another term.


And who the Hell are you?

No, seriously, bru--I've never even seen you before, and I've been following this CSM's term/activities quite closely, if I may say so myself.

Pot, meet kettle, mayhap?

most of the posting involved him vehemently denying leaking to riverini, with the rest of us shitting on him for his obvious lies


Aaaaaaand, basing your entire argument on information that exists--according to you--in places the rest of us can't access as well as, basically, trying to get everyone to point and laugh at your opponent with you, that's profoundly authoritative.

Ad hominem, check.

Appeal to ignorance, check.

Implied appeal to authority, none-too-subtle, check.

Naturally, I'll switch my vote/s based on these criteriaRoll

Next!

What I'm seeing is pretty clear cut. A lot of the current CSM group see Darius III as a hindrance to the process, say he's difficult to work with, accuse him of cheating, or seem to feel that he's - at best - hard to communicate with directly. No matter which CSM candidate you agree with and which one you hate, do you really just want someone interrupting what should be a game-building and helpful process? (Of course, to actually interrupt the process you have to participate, so I suppose he's got that going for him.)


"What's good for General Motors (IE, Goonies) is good for Amurrikka!!!!111oneone11!! (IE, EVE)," eh?

"And that's because we say so, just trust us!"

Sorry, no: GM builds and sells, and has always built and sold, crap, no amount of in-your-face advertising based on a budget bigger than the GDP of some First-World countries is going to change that fundamental truth.

And even if that weren't true, then their "products" just aren't really to everyone's tastes.

Hey where'd all the posts from Mittens go that said D3 needed my "knows how to make a deal" "socially adept" and "knows how to party" skills back in Brick?

Asshats.

Darius III has my vote and the vote of every THORNie and pretty much everyone I know in eve (that's like 5 more ppl).

The man just f***ing rocks. You need a guy like this sporting a constant middle finger to CCP to call them out on their bulls**t.

D3 knows how to get s**t done, on every level, socially in game & out.

We all know with Eve's decreasing subscriptions and ketamine addict devs, Eve may just not be here in a few more years.
The future of our game hangs in the balance of folks like Darius bringing these narcodevs back to the reality that WE face in game.

D3 truly represents all of us, especially those of us in PVP combat, low sec or null. He is an absolute necessity.
Vote for this man.
